This systematic review compares complications and outcomes of partial and total adrenalectomy, suggesting individualized treatment based on tumor type.
PA offers superior preservation of adrenal function and fewer mild perioperative complications compared with TA, but shows a higher risk of tumor recurrence in pheochromocytoma patients. PA was not associated with higher recurrence in Conn's patients. Other surgical and oncological outcomes were similar, underscoring the need to individualize the choice of procedure based on tumor type and patient factors.
